Miami Halloween on the Bay

Halloween
Costume Cruise

Costumes on, lights up, skyline glowing. Miami's spookiest party sails Biscayne Bay after dark — skip the crowded clubs and bring your crew aboard.

Best-costume contest Up to 49 guests Sunset & after-dark sailings

The Best Halloween Party in Miami Floats

Forget the velvet rope and the $20 parking. This Halloween, take the party to the water. Cruise Biscayne Bay as the sun sets, show off your costume against a glowing Miami skyline, and dance under the stars with your favorite people — no line, no cover, no Uber surge.

We've been Miami's go-to for celebrations on the water since 2013. The captain handles the route and the timing; you handle the costumes and the playlist. Want add-ons? Our private events lead can coordinate décor, a photographer, or a DJ. One call, one unforgettable Halloween.

Why Halloween Hits Different on the Water

Three reasons a costume cruise beats every land-based Halloween party.

Miami Halloween Cruise FAQ

Quick answers to the most common questions.

When does the Halloween cruise run?
Around Halloween weekend in late October. It's a peak date — boats book out early, so we recommend reserving 3–5 weeks ahead, sooner for a specific boat or time slot.
Private group or shared tickets?
Both. Book the entire boat for your crew, or ask about single tickets on a shared costume cruise with other guests.
Can we run a costume contest and decorate?
Absolutely. Bring a prize for best costume and decorate with balloons and banners. Just no glitter or confetti, please.
Is it BYOB? What's the age policy?
Yes, BYOB-friendly — we provide coolers, ice, soda, cups, and water. Alcohol is 21+ only with valid ID. All ages welcome on private bookings.
What if the weather is bad?
For high winds, thunderstorms, or heavy rain we reschedule at no charge. Light rain or clouds? We usually still sail — Miami weather changes fast.
Where do we depart from?
Pier 3 at the Venetian Marina, 1635 N Bayshore Dr, Miami, FL 33132 — central to Downtown, Brickell, and South Beach.
